| Impact of newer antihyperglycemic agents on hepatic complications: A systematic review and meta-analysis of data from 5.3 million patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
GLP-1 RAs and SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with hepatoprotective effects compared with other glucose-lowering therapies in patients with T2DM, with GLP-1 RAs showing additional benefits in chronic liver disease. These findings provide evidence on the relationships between antidiabetic drug classes and liver-related outcomes in patients with T2DM and may inform clinical decision-making. |

| Diagnostic Accuracy of Non-Invasive Tests for MASLD Across Age, Type 2 Diabetes, and Obesity Subgroups: A Multinational Study.
Accuracy of non-invasive tests for advanced fibrosis in MASLD is influenced by age, T2D, and obesity. Age-adjusted FIB-4 thresholds may enhance risk stratification. Imaging-based and composite NITs (LSM and Agile-3+) provide more consistent performance across MASLD subpopulations. |
| Gaze shift to screen edge boosts colorectal adenoma detection: multicenter randomized controlled trial (EYE-SIGHT trial).
Increased peripheral gaze by real-time guidance significantly improved adenoma and polyp detection without extending procedure time. This low-burden, scalable approach may offer a simple, effective method to improve colonoscopy. UMIN-CTR, UMIN000055006, |
| Peppermint oil and sweets in pediatric irritable bowel syndrome and functional abdominal pain: a randomized trial.
Neither peppermint oil nor peppermint sweets were superior to placebo in treating paediatric IBS and FAP-NOS. These findings suggest prioritizing proven gut-brain axis-targeted interventions for this population. |
| Tailored treatment of functional dyspepsia with nortriptyline: a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
Nortriptyline was not more effective than placebo in reducing FD symptoms in participants pre-selected based on CYP2D6 genotype, although a biological effect of nortriptyline could not be ruled out. However, effects related to participants' belief appeared to be stronger; number, NCT03652571. |
| Ustekinumab and JAK inhibitors outperform vedolizumab as second-line therapy in anti-TNF-experienced patients with ulcerative colitis.
Ustekinumab and JAKi were more effective than vedolizumab in inducing steroid-free and biochemical remission following anti-TNFα failure. Safety concerns with JAKi warrant careful patient selection in clinical practice. |

| Effect of long-term adherence on faecal immunochemical test positivity rate, positive predictive value and detection rate in organised population-based colorectal cancer screening.
After an initial round with the highest FIT-positivity and detection rates, screening outcomes stabilise at lower levels reflecting neoplasia removal and subsequent selection of a lower-risk population. Because detection rates remain clinically relevant even in an adherent cohort, early screening cessation after a sequence of normal biennial FITs is not justified. |
| Integrative proteogenomics maps multifactorial aetiology, progression and therapeutic vulnerabilities in gastric cancer.
This proteogenomic framework defines exposure-informed and microbiome-informed gastric cancer subtypes, providing a molecular schema for patient stratification, prevention and actionable therapeutic vulnerabilities. |
| Post-infection disorders of gut-brain interaction: results of the Rome Foundation Global Epidemiology Study.
PI-DGBI represents a significant subset of DGBI, with distinct sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. These findings highlight the role of acute gastroenteritis in triggering the onset of long-term gastrointestinal disorders and underscore the need for targeted interventions to mitigate its impact on patient health. |
| Prospective evaluation of radical surgery for adenocarcinoma of oesophagogastric junction: real-world insights from the CLAEG study.
The CLAEG study shows that abdominal lymphadenectomy should be prioritised in AEG, with neoadjuvant therapy, total gastrectomy and laparoscopy associated with favourable short-term outcomes. |

| Incorporating artificial intelligence into imaging for surveillance and diagnosis of liver cancer: Innovations, challenges, and clinical translation.
Large, prospective multicenter validation studies are essential to confirm clinical benefit and safety. Ultimately, the careful implementation of trustworthy and explainable AI tools could enable earlier detection, greater diagnostic precision, and more equitable liver cancer care. |
